Rent Textbooks & Binky Caricatures

Binky of Wombania.com Cartoon by Bearman of beartoons.com

Third and fourth winners of my 500th post caricature contest are up today.  First is the loveable Binky from Peter Marinacci’s Wombania.   Peter was too shy for a caricature so he asked the rocket and chocolate loving Binky to stand in for him.

Next up is the person that many thought was a spammer.  I mean who goes by the name “Rent Textbooks“.  Somehow I realized her comments were just a little smarter than a typical spammer so I kept her from the dump pile.  It has paid off and now not only is she a regular commenter but she is allowing me to out her publicly on my site.  First up is the caricature:

Caricature-Hillary-Rent-Textbooks Bearman Cartoons

And the real her (in case you were wondering):

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It didn’t help my cause that she sent me three completely different looks. ha   She said she was a big fan of the water and the beach thus the setting.

Some final good news.  So many times you see great bloggers and cartoonists give up the web for other things.  One of them was one of the first followers of Beartoons, Brogan from Artic Blast Comic.  Well I am happy to say he is back.  The site url is the same but the name is changed to Inkee Doodles Studios.  Go show him some love.

    Hey, it’s me!
    Great caricature, Beraman!
    Now let’s see what this rocket can really do!

      You look really cute there Binky 🙂

      1. Binky Avatar

        Thanks, Kame, but I think most would vote Rent Textbook cuter!

    That water looks very inviting!

    1. Binky Avatar

      But why does that fish have such a big smile?

      1. Bearman Avatar

        Maybe he just farted

          1. Bearman Avatar

            Wonder where sea foam comes from?

    Woot! Hey Bearman, what’s your secret. I never get pretty fan girls sending me their pictures. If I’m lucky I might get a photo of Bo Lumpkin in drag.

    1. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

      That wasn’t me and I didn’t send it. That was a picture of my Aunt Floosy and we just resemble slightly. Her beard is darker than mine.

    2. Binky Avatar

      I’d send you my picture, but I’m not a girl. Or pretty. Or human. But cartoonist have to take what they can get.

      1. Bearman Avatar

        JP. All you have to do is ask and they seem pretty willing.

        Bo, I keep telling you to shave Aunt Floosy, esp her back.

        Binky, you are such an art whore.

    Thanks Bearman! I love it, and thanks for the kind words. Its hard to be “rent textbooks” and be taken seriously.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Now if you could figure out how to change your gravatar like I told you, all would be well.

  5. SpilledInkGuy Avatar

    I would never have guessed Binky liked chocolate.
    Love ’em both, Bearman – nicely done, sir!
    (Great news about Brogan, to – I hadn’t heard about that)!
    🙂

    1. Binky Avatar

      The chocolate thing is supposed to be a secret, but Beraman blabbed!

      1. Bearman Avatar

        That’s only because you sent me a bunch of it in the mail and all that I got was wrappers.

        1. Binky Avatar

          I can’t help it if your mailbox isn’t squirrel-proof.

          1. Friggin Loon Avatar

            Just be grateful it wasn’t Vegemite!!!!

          2. Bearman Avatar

            Trust me I am grateful…yech.

    Fantastic work Bearman. Does this mean you are going to have to come up with new comic ideas next week?
    I have enjoyed them all.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Sunday we are back to our regular political bashing of someone.

  7. Comedy Plus Avatar

    I love Binky. You did a great job on both.

    Have a terrific day. 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Thanks Sandee.

    Great job! Binky will need a wing in a museum soon for ‘The Binky Collection’. Rent Textbooks looks great too. That’s a very clever name, but I would have thought it spam initially as well.

    1. Binky Avatar

      Museum currently under construction. . .

    2. Bearman Avatar

      I need to start making people draw me all over the net too. I want my own wing.

      1. Binky Avatar

        But no one knows what you look like!

        1. Bearman Avatar

          See me in my gravatar. Just like that but better looking.

          1. Binky Avatar

            Better looking? That’s rather difficult to believe.

          2. Bearman Avatar

            I know. It is so good looking as it is.

    Ground Control to Major Binky. Take your chocolate bar and put your helmet on!
    Those fish sure know what they like! Love these, Bearman! Great color and fun.

    1. Binky Avatar

      Actually my helmet was made of chocolate and I accidentally ate it.

      1. Bearman Avatar

        Don’t tell anyone but so is your rocket. It will begin melting pronto.

        1. Tony McGurk Avatar

          Now that’s gunna be a problem on re-entry

          1. nursemyra Avatar

            Perhaps he’ll land in the sea next to rent textbooks

          2. Bearman Avatar

            I think JP is already in line for mouth to mouth.

  10. Young American Wisdom Avatar

    These are excellent…so fun! I’ll admit I’m a tad bit envious. In case you’re wondering…I’ve always wanted to be a rodeo clown.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Don’t give me any ideas.

  11. Tony McGurk Avatar

    Binky needs to steer that rocket to Tasmania, I have a chocolate hankering. Excellent job of both Bearman. Very good likeness of Rent, or is it Miss Textbook? You have a real talent for caricatures.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Just call her RT unless you are on Twitter and everyone will think you are Retweeting.

    2. Binky Avatar

      Heading for Tasmania, but my rocket is melting!!

      1. Bearman Avatar

        That sounds like a personal problem.

      2. Tony McGurk Avatar

        Come on Binky you can make it…

  12. Friggin Loon Avatar

    That’s not fair you did two in one which means……I’m friggin next!!!!! I will have to see if I can find any baby maggot photos 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Oh that’s a maggot, I thought it was a mosquito.

      1. Friggin Loon Avatar

        It’s a March fly 🙂

        1. Bearman Avatar

          Don’t underestimate yourself. you are a pest all year long.

  13. George Avatar

    They both look great! This is the only site where I get see what some of the best-known bloggers look like. Thanks, Bearmna! 😀

    1. Bearman Avatar

      yeah yeah yeah…I already did yours haha

  14. kame Avatar

    I am jumping here (tho turtle can’t jump) from Binky’s blog. Just wanted to say, Binky looks cute there.

    The story with Rent Textbook is interesting. I also have some spammer that doesn’t sound like a spam…tho none sent their photo 😉

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Spammers have been getting smarter and stealing bits of others comments so if you aren’t paying attention, they get through. Thanks for stopping by.

  15. Deb Adams Avatar

    Binky look really good up there. So does text book. Great job, Bearman!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Thanks for stopping by Deb.

      1. Bearman Avatar

        Great…now I have to leave it up there because you commented on him. haha

  17. alecho Avatar

    Binky looks cool on the rocket! 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Just wondering where his seatbelt is.

      1. Binky Avatar

        I’m superglued to the fuselage.

        1. Bearman Avatar

          I’ll get the scissors when you land.

    Rockets, the future of transportation. You heard it here first folks. ><

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I’m just waiting for the flying car they promised me as a kid.

      1. Binky Avatar

        I’m working on it, I’m working on it!

  19. Brogan Avatar

    Hey there Bearman! Thanks for the show of love as I get back into the swing of things again! Looking forward to catching up on ur blogs again as well as your new stuff to come. 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I am just glad you didn’t disappear in the blogosphere abyss.

  20. SpilledInkGuy Avatar

    Wasn’t there an episode of Mythbusters where they strapped a Wombie to a rocket?!
    🙂

    1. Binky Avatar

      That was me! Buster was indisposed at the time.

      1. Bearman Avatar

        Buster gets all the girls.

    Great again, as usual… is there anything you can’t do? 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Yes…profit off my talent.

  22. Brian Hagen Avatar

    Your caricature of “Rent Textbooks” is really pretty. This is extremely hard to do – an attractive caricature of a woman. You did really well. Did you make many versions?

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Interesting that I got the look down the first time. Usually there are at least 20 renditions of a person before i am happy.

    2. rent textbooks Avatar

      Thank you I like it a lot myself!

      1. Bearman Avatar

        You better..hah

  23. Sabina Brave Avatar

    I like this caricature of Binky 🙂 You are really good in this kind of art.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Thanks Sabina

  24. Nate Fakes Avatar

    Good caricatures. I’m imagining mine right now (for – you know – when I win one), and it looks great!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      It would be a mix between Tom Richmond and Tom Arnold I imagine.

  25. Sheila Deeth Avatar

    Wombat plus chocolate! Perfect for my writing wombat friends. Enjoyed the caricatures, and enjoyed the trip to Inkee Doodles.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      You have writing wombat friends?

  26. Dr. Cynicism Avatar

    You *sure* the reason you put her in a swim suit was because she said she liked the beach? Really? Hmm…

  27. bluntdelivery Avatar

    very awesome! that looks just like her! seriously, how the CRAP did you make me into a puppet.

    ugh.

    and YES, i’m turning this post into an all about me. Yes.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Did not my second attempt look like you??
